Moving from Chicago to New England as a teenager is hard enough, but Luciana aka Lucy Milanetti has another hurdle to overcome, she is the daughter of a mafia boss. However, she does manage to fit in and make friends.

Danny is a friend from school who seems to like her more than a friend and hopes they have a future. Tony is part of “the family” who is always around to protect Lucy, but as Lucy matures his feelings for her begin to change.

What a crazy life filled with much danger and death, yet balanced with love and respect among friends and family. Lucy has many choices to make from her career to who has captured her heart. Hopefully she will make the right choices for herself.

Wow! Mafia, family, friends, money and danger are just a few of the elements you will find in this book by Susanna L. Hargreaves. I enjoyed the romance and characters, but feel the flow of the story is a bit choppy and slow at times for me. Overall, it is an enjoyable read that I would recommend for someone looking for a story with a bit of something different.
